Our Take

Grant Green may not be a household name like Beyoncé or Kanye, but his jazzy guitar skills are definitely worthy of a spot in your music collection. "Grant Green: 5 Original Albums" brings together some of his best work in one convenient package.

The first album, "Grant's First Stand", kicks things off with smooth guitar licks and funky rhythms that will have you tapping your feet in no time. Green's effortless playing style shines through on tracks like "Miss Ann's Tempo" and "Lullaby of the Doomed", making it a must-listen for jazz enthusiasts.

Moving on to "Green Street", Green showcases his versatility with a mix of soulful ballads and up-tempo grooves. The title track, "Green Street", is a standout, with its infectious melody and impeccable guitar work.

"Sunday Mornin'", the third album in the collection, takes listeners on a chilled-out journey through Green's more mellow side. Tracks like "If You Really Love Me" and "The Final Comedown" are perfect for lazy Sunday afternoons spent lounging on the sofa.

"Alone Together" sees Green teaming up with pianist Bobby Hutcherson for a collaboration that is nothing short of pure musical magic. The chemistry between the two musicians is palpable on tracks like "Oscalypso" and "Grant's Tune", making this album a standout in Green's discography.

Rounding out the collection is "Street of Dreams", a fitting end to this musical journey. The album features a mix of standards and original compositions, all delivered with Green's signature style and flair. Tracks like "Somewhere in the Night" and "My One and Only Love" showcase Green's talent for crafting beautiful melodies that will linger in your mind long after the music stops. So grab a glass of wine, sit back, and let Grant Green take you on a musical adventure you won't soon forget.
